This is today's post for Oddball Art Co !

For this project I am using the steampunk octopus

I have produced a journal page...

Step ONE

After a layer of white gesso, I added some collage - brown paper and tissue, book paper and some paper that I had scribbled on - all torn to pieces and added with matt medium.

Step TWO

A layer of several colours of turquoise and white paint. I then wiped some of this off through a  stencil with a wet wipe.

Step THREE

When dry I added some prize ribbon Distress Oxide Spray and allowed this to dry. I added stamping using black Archival and a variety of Darkroom Door stamps and a die cut net using a Bee Arty die.

Step FOUR

I printed the octopus and painted it with shimmery water colours and then cut it out.

Step FIVE

I added some black and white penwork and some black distress around the edges.

I added more stamping, the octopus and the sentiment.

I cut steampunk from LeighSB Designs

 giraffe steampunk in yellow and added the gold watercolour to it.
